Liverpool owners FSG are considering a swoop to buy La Liga club Getafe.

The Boston-based group are looking to build a multi-club profile in football with Michael Edwards a key man in the project.

The Reds are now assessing the Madrid-based club after looking at Bordeaux and Malaga in the past.



The club is currently improving their Estadio Coliseum ground and could be open to selling in the near future.

A spokesperson for FSG said: “FSG routinely engages in conversations and evaluates opportunities across global sports, a common process to assess ventures that align with the organisation’s strategic priorities.”

Liverpool could use relationships with other clubs to help with the development of players in the way Manchester City has with City Football Group, which owns numerous clubs around the world.

They also reached the quarter-finals of last season's Copa Del Rey, losing to Atletico Madrid.

If Liverpool's owners complete a deal for Getafe, they would join a number of Premier League rivals with multi-club ownership interests.

Chelsea owners BlueCo added French side Strasbourg to their portfolio in 2023, while City Football Group have several clubs across multiple continents, including Manchester City, Girona and New York City FC.

FSG already own teams in other sports, and owned the Boston Red Sox before completing their Liverpool takeover.

They agreed to buy the Premier League club from previous owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett back in 2010.
